RE:Rear Suspension Fabrication

Subject: RE:Rear Suspension Fabrication

I see how tilting the rear knuckle back would help, this pivots the toe link downward which has the same effect as raising the inboard toe link. So this'd require some adjustable dogbones, or some shim plates between the dogbone bracket and the chassis.


Since the dogbones are different lengths, there's caster change going on when the upright moves. Quite a bit actually.

To top it off, since the dogbones are so long, the wheel moves for and aft quite a bit as well.
